Brief description/objective

The size of the anterior visual pathway (AVP) structures is affected by patient age and pathology. Normative data is useful when determining whether pathology is present. AVP structures do not respect the standard planes of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The aim of this study was to produce normative age-related and axis-corrected data of the AVP structures using multiplanar reformation (MPR) of high-resolution 3D T2-weighted fast spin echo (3D T2w FSE) images.
